Chronobiology, Sleep Disturbances and Food Intake Disorders
Original language description
Circadian rhythmicity is an intrinsic property of various body cells and tissues, and is driven by so-called clock control genes and their products. Variation in clock control genes have been linked to various components of metabolic syndrome. Experimental animals with knock-out of those genes show food intake disorders as well as variety of common diseases. At the systemic level, circadian rhythmicity is synchronized by master clock in hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). SCN responds to external stimuli (zeitgebers) by promoting the secretion of hormone melatonin from pineal gland , regulating hypothalamus-hypophysis-adrenal glands axis and influencing the body temperature. The principal zeitgeber is the light-dark cycle, however, SCN settingsis also influenced by other stimuli such as nutrition intake during the day. The desynchronization of internal SCN settings and dai ly activity (circadian misalignment) can lead into potentially adverse consequences for metabolism.
